#296: How Michael Janda Built A $30,000,000 Design Agency From One Super Power | The Infinite Clients Series
Manage episode 401945331 series 1816805
Being likable is a super power for freelancers, and here's why...
This business is all about making a great first impression, keeping your clients coming back for more, and getting them to tell their friends about you.
When you meet a new client, hitting it off right away can make a huge difference. Just like when you meet anyone new and instantly click — you just want to hang out more.
For freelancers, being more likable means clients are more likely to pick you over someone else, and stick around AND refer more work your way.
See why this matters?
Here's what sucks...
Some people are just bad at being likable. If that's the case, what can you do?
To help us all out with this, I brought back one of the most likable people I've ever had on the show: Michael Janda.
Michael joined us back on episode 207 and walked us through how brought in 6 figures his first year freelancing, and went on to bring in over $30,000,000 from his design agency before he ultimately sold it.
Those numbers show proof that he knows his stuff, and this episode, he'll walk us through what we can do to become the person people WANT to be around (and hire).
No matter who you are, there is something you need to hear in my conversion with Michael Janda.
In this episode you’ll discover:
- Why relationships are so important to building your business
- Building your reputation vs. building relationships
- How he landed a $500,000 client just by being nice
- Getting out of your shell when interacting with people
- What skills to work on to grow your business
- Asking people about themselves to win them over
- Why playing games with your business is bad
- Creating goodwill with your clients
